Our New Victorian Mate – Ranger Canopy

Custom Ford Ranger Canopy

We recently completed and fitted a Custom Canopy on a 2017 Ford Ranger. The customer did his research and made the decision to travel all the way from Victoria to have his new canopy installed. He appreciated the modern look, our willingness to complete custom work specific to his taste, and provide a strong product that will last.

Check out some of the details and progress pictures below…

We framed, we sheeted and then delivered the raw aluminium canopy to the painters for a custom colour coded paint job. The Canopy was to be finished in striking silver to blend and match with the rest of the ute.

The Canopy returned a sparkling silver ready for fit out.

This install required the Canopy to be mounted directly onto the chassis. Unlike most Canopies currently on the market we use our special chassis mounting kit, which requires no direct welding onto the chassis. This kit allows for easy removal of the Canopy should you wish to upgrade your car in the future.

Once the Canopy was secure on the chassis our qualified auto electrician commenced installing the large amount of wiring and electrical accessories.

The electrical accessories included remote controlled central locking with alarm, remote controlled internal LED lights, LED tail lights, 2x rear facing spot lights, a DC charger connected to two 100w solar panels roof mounted on to the canopy. The electrics also allowed for the customer to connect his dual battery and fridge setup upon returning home.

Another option we offer our customers are our custom air vents fitted to the side doors of the canopy. These vents are fitted with a filter internally to collect dust and allow for positive pressure and cooling inside the canopy. We recommend these vents especially if electrical equipment is optioned inside the canopy to increase air flow and cooling capabilities.

The customer also opted for a lockable under tray rear draw, a departure angle toolbox to house his battery box, a water tank with tap, 4 multi point tie down rails two mounted on the roof and two internally on the canopy floor. A third rear door was also requested for greater access and for loading items. We then carpeted the floor and internal doors with marine grade carpet.

The customer was incredibly happy with the completed build and had a safe trip back to Victoria.
